Yes they are a good set of documents, I went though them few weeks back. When I started using the PS CS RAW convertor I pretty quickly realized that sharpening was often necessary but some images sharpen much better than others so I set my camera default at 15 rather than 25, I also have both my NR sliders at zero default. I've found that the colour noise slider often needs very little adjustment to be pretty effective, the default setting is complete overkill IMO and effects saturation quite significantly.
